New King James Version
25 (A)You shall therefore distinguish between clean animals and unclean, between unclean birds and clean, (B)and you shall not make yourselves [a]abominable by beast or by bird, or by any kind of living thing that creeps on the ground, which I have separated from you as [b]unclean. 26 And you shall be holy to Me, (C)for I the Lord am holy, and have separated you from the peoples, that you should be Mine.
